| Logistic Growth: Draw and explain logistic population growth. Identify carrying capacity on a graph of logistic growth. Identify limiting factors. |
Conclude yeast lab. Students are asked to explain why some growth curves "stopped." Notes on logistic growth, carrying capacity, density dependent and density independent limiting factors. |

| Logistic Growth: Draw and explain logistic population growth. Identify carrying capacity on a graph of logistic growth. Identify limiting factors. |
Class plays the elk game. View a graph of human population growth thus far, students are asked to analyze it in terms of exponential and logistic growth, brainstorm what limiting factors may come into play to impose K. http://myfootprint.org |

| Energy Transfer - Producers: Explain how energy flows through an ecosystem. (10% law, trophic levels, biomass, Law of Conservation of Energy) Use an energy pyramid to illustrate this. Use a food web to identify and distinguish producers, consumers and decomposers. Explain the transfer of energy through the trophic levels of a food web. |
Notes and simulation on community, energy and biomass, producers, basics of chemosynthesis, photosynthesis, cellular respiration. |
